You said I was your "coming out" crush. I never admitted it, not to anyone, but I think I was kind of in love with you myself. I didn't want to date you or *******, but I didn't want anyone else to, either.

2. Thank you for refusing to leave me alone during that first week of February. I wanted to die, but you gave me a reason to get out of bed in the morning.

3. I'm sorry I got drunk and lashed out at you last summer, and I'm sorry that I didn't say it sooner.

4. We were not compatible as roommates, but I would give anything to see you walk through my front door again.

5. You can't forget about me. I know this because I can't forget about you.

6. Whenever I'm upset, you're still the first person I want to call.

7. ******* it, I really wish I could call you right now. I want to hear your voice.

8. If I had to do it over again, I'd choose differently. I'd choose you. I love him, but loving him is complicated. Love isn't supposed to be so complicated.

9. I miss you so much that it hurts. It literally hurts. I didn't know it was possible to feel so much pain until now.

10. Sometimes when he says "I love you," I hesitate to say it back. But I never hesitated for you.
I know you're gone, but you're still here.
